Radiation From a Sine-Gordon Soliton Propagating in an External Potential
Abstract
The interaction of a fast moving sine-Gordon soliton with an external periodic potential is examined. The resulting equation of motion for the collective coordinate representing the position of the soliton is given in relativistic form. We examine the radiation emitted due to the interaction of the soliton with the potential and we calculate the potential dependent part of the time evolution equation for the creation and annihilation operators for fluctuations.
